OK, Dale Hunter is the head coach for the London Knights hockey team.They have been on a winning streak for the last season or two, and the games are always sold out.
http://lfpress.ca/newsstand/Ne....htmlJust because he has some notoriety in this town, he gets to skate on a DUI charge.That's crap.If he blew over the limit, no matter what the circumstances, he's guilty.

easy there....he's coach of the london knights in the OHL...which means he's not rich. and considering it's London we're talking about...he's only marginally famous! i also think the judge's comments at the end (bake a cake) show that even she thought this was unfortunate and that he probably was guilty, but a botched up investigation by the police officers was the reasoning behind the acquittal.it is unfortunate he got off (as it sounds like he definitely was drunk) but i also think it's good that the judge made it clear that the charter of rights were infringed upon...afterall, those are important (just a bit ya think?)
